[Q] CE Label/Certificate - Samsung Captivate Glide

I would like to know if the samsung captivate glide has a CE certificate. I would like to buy one and ship it to europe, but it won't get through customs if it doesn't have such a label.
I cannot find this information anywhere (not even with samsung US support), so I would like to ask if someone who has a captivate glide could check the label under the battery which displays IMEI number etc. If it has a CE label, the letters CE should be on there in capital. If it is unclear what I mean, a close up picture of the label would be sufficient. (maybe it's a good idea to cross out the IMEI number in paint or so)
Thanks in advance!

I can't find a CE-Label.
But personally I had no problems importing the Glide to Germany.
I used Borderlinx as import service.

The under-battery label bears no such marking. (And why would it? CE is Europe only, and this is a device intended for use only with two carriers, both of which only operate in North America.)
For what it's worth, the battery itself has the CE mark, but I suspect it's a generic battery used in a variety of Samsung devices.
-E- You got me curious and I read Wikipedia for a while. It sounds like you can legally affix the CE marking yourself if you fill out some paperwork and take certain steps.

silly request

I know it is no big deal, but maybe we should add the Cingular logo as a valid carrier for the USA.
Also, how about adding the label Siemens SX66 as a model number so my ROM versions could be filled out there (instead of on my signature)...
System admins, can I assist in this effort?
Yeah, and we could also add Blue Angel, Alpine and Magician to the used Devices.

Updating country and operator images

I must notice that there are some corny data in flags and operator logos.
Yugoslavia ceased to exist in 2003 and until a month ago was called Serbia and Montenegro. A month ago two countries split apart and they are two independent states now.
I can provide you with the new flags which style will be very simillar to those already used at the forums.
Also, there are 2 GSM operators in Serbia, Mobtel (curretly is on sale) and Telekom Srbija. The first one you have listed under Yugoslavia and it has no image (uses defaul fido.ca). That should be corrected too. I can find their logo and resize it for the forum needs.
The same is with Moldova: there are two GSM providers in the country: one of them is Voxtel, which in 1-2 months will be Orange (listed here, but without logo) and Moldcell. you can see the logos of both companies on www.voxtel.md and www.moldcell.md
Also china would be great. There are 3 gsm providers, china telecom and china unicom.
I would like to provide image for my operator too. And color stripes in country flag is not in right proportions
I can prepare images if it is possible to change this.
Also in Israel, you don't have one GSM carrier. its called Cellcom, and I would be happy to send the Logo if you wish.

T-mobile mda compact iii for sale

Hi all,
i have my mda compact 3 for sale. its a UK version on tmobile. it has the pdaviet black and blue operating system on it. i think its version 4.0 (not sure but can be checked).
Supplying with all the bit in the box and a 2gb memory card. the reason for sale is that i have now purchased a t-mobile mda compact iii so this handset is no longer used. I bought this phone in August this year and has 1 mark on it in the right hand corner on the bottom.
I belive the handset still has warranty (as long as you replace the operating system back to t-mobile software. Its a nice phone but i just needed the 3g as i use the web n walk alot.
I am looking to get £200 for it.
Please contact me if you are interested. ([email protected])
i can deliver the handset as long as its not too far from me or we can meet half way or if none is possible i can post out special recorded delivery only within the UK (but this is only if the distance is too great).
If i have posted in the wrong part of the website or am not supposed to post this then please let me know as i will gladly remove the thread if need be.
Thank you
Sam

Genuine HTC Touch???

Where to begin? I purchased what I thought was a real HTC Touch(GSM), only to have received what I think maybe a Chinese clone or Chinese version of said phone. The phone itself is tagged HTC even in the battery compartment. The phone doesn't say DOPOD (Taiwanese subsidiary) anywhere on it but I have my suspicions. Aside from the roms and badges, is there any difference ,hardware wise? I know the Chinese versions can't utilize a 3G network. Is this issue Hardware or Firmware? If it's a DOPOD, will it take a U.S rom once I unlock the CID? Can I save the old ROM (just in case)? Are you tired of me asking questions yet? With the info bellow can it be determined if I was scammed?
ROM 1.11.706.1b CHS
model ELF0100
model# HTC P3450
p/n 99HDM030-00
I picked a bad week to stop drinking tequila.
I had enough of this, I,m going to drown my sorrows. I'll check back in the morning.
Appears to be a regular Elf model Touch?
It appears to be, but looks can be deceiving. Also there are tell-tale signs,( spelling and grammatical errors in the UI, missing features, etc.).What I really need to know is if it is, are there any physical hardware differences between a US model and an Asian Knock-off? I went to the US HTC website to check for updates and I found a rom update. After inputting my ser. number for the download, it replied that it was not a legitimate serial number. IF it is a Chinese version can I convert it to a US model? will I have 3G accessibility? Inquiring minds want to know.
Unfortunately, that I cannot answer--although if it is a knock-off, and therefore of no use--might as well try, right?
Well, yeah, I can try, but I can also end up bricking my phone if they're not the same. Can't I?

Oneplus 7T regional hardware differences and LTE-support

Hi
As @Some_Random_Username found out, there seem to be different hardware-variants of the OP7T see this thread. The primary reason for this appears to be WWAN-band support (4G/5G).
I recently noticed the 7T European SKU(HD1903) dropped support for the important LTE-band 71. This makes it a bit less global. The Euro SKU is also missing 30, 46 and 48. It does get LTE-bands 40 and 32 (missing form USA-variant HD1905) in return the latter which does not appear to be in use anywhere.
I have contacted OP via the FCC contact and also via support to find out more. If there are HW-differences, we should be able to seem them by looking at the IC's Oneplus uses: their spec's determine which frequencies the handset can accomodate. Also the antenna's are important: sometimes a dedicated antenna is placed for a specific band. At any rate, it is a bit strange to split the SKU's merely for adding band-32 to the EU-variant.
There has to be more to it than that: licencing costs and chip costs coming to mind first.
Maybe you will also find such nitty gritty details fun to know. At least I am having fun in checking this out

I was on the edge myself when deciding which variant to purchase...the bands were the deciding factor I'm in the states so didn't want any issues using my data. I wanted the Chinese variant just to be able to say I have the Chinese 7t and the symbols on the box ? ROFL but yeah copped the US variant directly from OP ? I love it...
